He was aggressive.
I was impulsive.
I agreed to marry him after that ravishing kiss. After our conversation at the pavilion, he suggested we talk to my father, and the prospect of marrying him filled me with excitement.
I was destined to become a Luna as an Alpha's daughter, but being the Luna of the Dark Furs Pack felt so rewarding and satisfying.
My father was surprised to see us together, but he knew who I was. I always got what I wanted, and much to his chagrin, he accepted Alpha Jacob's marriage proposal.
It happened too quickly, but I didn't feel bad about it. Every day after the wedding, I trusted Jacob's words to court me.
According to my assessment, he was a man who would keep his word. Lily complimented me on my effortless seduction, and I advised her to do the same.
She had a beautiful face because we were twins, but my sister was on another level!
Everyone, especially those who had their eyes on me, was taken aback when I announced my engagement to the Alpha of Dark Furs. Some men were simply unlucky! I couldn't wait for the wedding to happen as the days passed.
On my wedding day, I was both nervous and excited!
Was it because I adored him and couldn't bear the thought of losing him to another woman?
It was probably the main reason I was so eager to go to church!
My father wasn't pleased with my foolish attitude toward marrying the Alpha of Dark Furs, but he didn't say anything to me. He adored me so much and doted on me!
The entire entourage left around seven o'clock in the morning because the ceremony began at eight o'clock.
I told the driver to take a slight detour because the church was only a few minutes away from Somberridge, where the wedding reception would be held.
I didn't want to appear as the eager bride-to-be, so I planned to arrive a little late.
I was never clumsy, but when I arrived at my destination, I nearly stepped on my gown as I exited the bridal car.
The church entrance was framed with lovely flowers, and the aisle was also adorned with lush greenery and a plethora of flowers.
As I walked on the red carpet, I felt like a princess from a faraway kingdom, and I couldn't stop smiling when I looked at my father.
I was overjoyed to have discovered someone like Alpha Jacob who knew how to please me!
"Relax," Lily said quietly as she adjusted my gown in church.
"You look tense," my father observed, and I bit my bottom lip to control my emotions because
I had become overly emotional and felt like crying at the time. However, I didn't want to ruin my wedding makeup.
"Shhhh, go ahead," Lily said as the music began to play and I was forced to walk down the aisle alongside my father.
When I looked at him, I couldn't tell if he was truly pleased with my marriage to the Alpha of Dark Furs Pack.
I couldn't read his expressions because they were reserved. In any case, I made a mental note to contact him after the wedding.
When he got close to the altar, he walked over to the love seat and motioned for me to sit beside him.
“Nervous?” He asked in a low, deep voice, and without warning, he grabbed one of my hands, and even though I was wearing a glove, I could feel the warmth from his hand.
Then, to my surprise, I noticed his flawless hands and nicely shaped fingers. Aside from his lovely hands, his appearance would give the priest a heart attack!
"Handsome," I said out of nowhere, and the man was speechless.
I felt like an idiot who couldn't stop staring at my groom during the ceremony.
Damn!
I slowly turned around to see the maid. Before she could ruin my mood, I turned my gaze to my groom, and when he looked at me, his eyes tantalized the deepest part of my soul!
When the priest declared us husband and wife, he lifted the veil that had been draped over my head.
"I'm not pre-," I tried to say, but he suddenly took over my mouth with his, and my knees wobbled.
It was only a brief kiss, but my heartbeat became erratic, and I was afraid it would skip a beat.
I expected to see happiness in his eyes after the kiss, but I saw something else!
In everyone's eyes, I've just become his Luna. After the ceremony, the people who had witnessed our wedding gathered outside the church, and everyone was excited to enjoy the festivities and food at the pack.
"Where are we going?" I inquired as he gripped my wrist tightly.
"To inform your family that the feast at my place is far superior," he explained.
“W-what? Are you sure? Everything is prepared at home, and they are expecting us!" When I realized what was going on inside my head, I complained.
I didn't want to argue with him on our wedding day, but taking me away right after the ceremony would be unjust to both me and our community!
"Serious as fuck," he replied coldly, and I was taken aback by the shift in his tone.
He had never been cold or indifferent before, and I didn't expect him to change so quickly after the wedding.
I had narrowed my eyes and tried to analyze the man before, but his expressions were so guarded, and at that moment, I realized something that made my stomach churn in disgust!
Was he just acting all along?
No, he couldn't be that good at acting, could he? Maybe he was just overwhelmed by the wedding, or maybe he wasn't feeling well.
What was the matter with me? I wasn't supposed to transform him into someone else, but I was! I refused to believe that he was faking everything, especially his affection!
"My father would never agree to it," I explained, and he snorted. He snorted at me for the first time, and I didn't like it!
"He doesn't have a say in the matter, darling. You are now mine, and you are obligated to obey me as your husband and as the Alpha," he declared without regard for my feelings.
“W-what?!”
"Let's go," he said quietly as he drew closer to me and led me into his car.
"You're not going to be able to do this right now!" I screamed at him while making certain that no one could hear us.
"I can and will," he declared.
"What are you doing to me?" When I asked him, my voice quivered because his indifference had hurt my feelings.
"Because I'm so eager to welcome you into my home." Come on, sweetheart," he replied, and only God knows why I succumbed to his charms once more.
"OK," I said, but I persuaded him that we should first consult with my father to avoid future problems with Somberridge.
That's how much I liked him! I didn't want him to get on my father's bad side!
I was relieved when my father agreed to my husband's request to take me to Dark Furs immediately following the ceremony.
"I'm going to miss you, Lil," I told my sister, who simply smiled.
"I'll be there soon," she promised. "Are you sure, Father?"
"Of course, my child. Go ahead, darling. You are now his wife, and you must always obey him," my father stated.
"Thank you very much, Father. I'll see you and Lily soon," I told them, and since they knew Alpha Jacob had been my happy pill, they wished me luck on my journey.
They also promised to always have my back if things with the man I married got bad, and I assured them that I would be the happiest wife in the world.
“Ready?” Jacob inquired after speaking with my family.
"Yes," I said. I expected him to be a gentleman and help me with the hem of my dress on our way to his car because I was still in my wedding gown.
He, however, did not!
I was embarrassed, but I rationalized his actions in my head. Perhaps he didn't notice that my gown was too long, and I nearly tripped!
Fortunately, he opened the car door and assisted me in getting inside. Otherwise, I'd be devastated!
Then he smiled at me before starting the engine, and that was enough for me.
His efforts on my wedding day were minimal, but I was happy with them.
I appreciated his small efforts, but I wished he would be more consistent because I deserved more than the bare minimum.
"Oh my God!" When he abruptly stopped the car and my face fell on his crotch, I cursed.
